The Odessa Cafe and Bar scene moves next door to the Odessa
The Odessa Cafe and Bar at 117 Avenue A closed back on Aug. 31. At the time, we heard that the Cafe and Bar would be resurrected in the back of the Odessa next door at 119 Avenue A.
Well, the new bar made its debut this past weekend.

So, from Wednesday to Sunday evenings starting at 8, the back section of the Odessa — never all that crowded at this hour anyway — will serve drinks in a cozy ambiance similar to the former Cafe and Bar...

Leo, who tended bar and waited on tables at the Cafe (the dark side, if you like), will be serving drinks at the Odessa (the light side, etc.)

No word if they are bringing over the old framed photos of movie stars or the gourds from the former Cafe and Bar...

...it's a start!
That's great! So the restaurant is staying open for the foreseeable future, I hope?
